Burnley vs Chelsea Preview, Betting Odds and Predictions – 22/11/2025

Chelsea return to Premier League action on Saturday with a lunchtime visit to Turf Moor, where Burnley are desperate to halt their slide. The Clarets went into the international break on the back of two straight defeats. Meanwhile, the Blues arrive in Lancashire looking for a third successive league victory.

Enzo Maresca’s side were in full control before the pause as they brushed aside Wolves 3–0 at Stamford Bridge thanks to goals from Joao Pedro, Malo Gusto and former Wolves star Pedro Neto. That win followed their 2–1 derby triumph over Tottenham. These two wins helped Chelsea cement third place in the table behind only Arsenal and Manchester City.

Burnley vs Chelsea Preview

With 20 points from 11 games, Chelsea have quietly built momentum after an up-and-down start to the season. Depending on results elsewhere, they could close the gap on league leaders Arsenal this weekend. Burnley, meanwhile, enter the weekend in far more troubling form.

Scott Parker’s men have conceded 22 goals already. The Clarets have the third-worst defensive record in the league. While their 3–2 win at Wolves offered a brief lift, heavy defeats to Arsenal and West Ham have put them back under pressure. Last weekend’s 3–2 loss to West Ham leaves Burnley sitting 17th, only above the relegation zone on goal difference.

Burnley vs Chelsea Over/Under Predictions

Over 2.5 Goals @ -135 as per BetMGM

Over 2.5 Goals looks like a strong pick here given how both teams have been playing recently. Burnley’s league games have been high-scoring, with results like 3-2 vs West Ham and 3-2 vs Wolves showing how open their matches have become. Chelsea, meanwhile, have scored ten goals in their last four matches. With Burnley struggling defensively and Chelsea in strong attacking rhythm, another match with at least three goals feels very likely.

Burnley vs Chelsea Player Picks

Liam Delap to score anytime @ +150 as per BetMGM:

Liam Delap is still waiting for his first Premier League goal in a Chelsea shirt, but this matchup could be the moment things click for the 22-year-old. He has just returned from a two-month hamstring layoff and is gradually being reintegrated by Enzo Maresca. Having already featuring against Wolves earlier this month, he has a point to prove now. Delap offers good value to finally get off the mark against a Burnley side that has conceded heavily in recent weeks.

Burnley vs Chelsea Predictions

Final Scoreline Prediction

Final Prediction: Burnley 1-2 Chelsea

Clean sheets have become a rarity for Burnley and they continue to allow more than two goals per game on average. History doesn’t favour them either. Burnley have lost six straight Premier League home games to Chelsea, including a 4–1 defeat in their most recent meeting at Turf Moor. Burnley will need a major lift in performance to get any points on Saturday.
